Chain Restaurants

I have several favorite chain restaurants. These restaurants involve all different types of food. My favorite chain restaurant is Copelands. Copelands has been one of my favorite restaurants for a long time. I've eaten at the original Copelands in New Orleans. Copelands is delicious. I usually order the catfish acadiana. This dish is a delcious piece of catfish with really good potatoes and veggies. Their shrimp creole is also very good. So is their shrimp etouffe. I would probably enjoy anything on the menu at Copelands. The spices they use are really good. They have good deserts. The atmosphere at Copelands is always pretty cool as well. Its usually a pretty popular place. Its a good place to go with a group of people.
I also like Chilis a lot. It seems like a lot of cities have a chilis restaurant. They are usually pretty good. I usually order the chicken fajita nachos at chilis. Its a good meal. Their hamburgers and ribs are good too. I would probably also enjoy most things on the menu at chilis as well. Chilis has good appetizers. I like their deserts too.
I also like the Olive Garden. Their Italian dishes are all good. I also their Pasta Fajoli soup.
Red Lobster is good as well. Since I like seafood a lot, Red lobster is another one of my favorites. I would probably like just about anything on the menu there as well.
I like Zaxbys too. I know its a little different from the others Ive listed. The reason I like it is that I can get buffalo wings through drive thru. I usually get their second hottest wings. Their wings are good. They have some good appetizers too.
Cozy Mels is a good mexican food restaurant. You can't ever go wrong with chili rellenos or chicken quesadillas.

Candy

I'm sitting here eating some M&M's so I decided to write about a favorite of mine: candy. There are many types of candy that I enjoy. I am a big fan of chocolate. I really like hershey bars a lot. Sometimes when I go to the store, I might buy a pack of them. I don't like the ones with almonds as much as the regular ones. Reeses peanut butter cups are another favorite of mine. I can get addicted to those. They are very easy to get addicted to. I especially like the Reeses peanut butter cup chocolate christmas trees or chocolate eggs that come out around the holidays. Those are good. I also like Whoppers. I don't hear much about Whoppers anymore, but I still enjoy them. You also can't go wrong with any type of Russell Stovers chocloate. While sometimes expensive, Russell Stovers chocolate candies are usually good. Dove and Symphony chocolate bars are other good types of bars. Chocolate M&M's, which I am eating right now are also good. I like the Chocolate M&M's better than the Peanut Butter M&M's. I can get addicted to Chocolate M&M's as well. Also, chocolate covered raisins are good. Also, don't forget Nestle Crunch bars, another good chocolate bar.
As far as non-chocolate candy, starbursts have always been a favorite of mine. I remember eating starbursts a lot growing up. I like all the flavors, especially the red flavor. I buy starbursts all the time. A lot of times I will buy a big bag of starbursts from the store. You can't go wrong with starbursts. Most of my friends like starbursts as well. Gummy worms are another good candy. I used to get those at the movie theatre a lot. Sour gummy worms are good as well. Sour patch kids is another favorite type of candy. I also like that Mike and Ike candy.

some of my favorite comedy movies

Right now, while I am typing off, I have on the movie Kingpin in the background. Kingpin is one of my favorite movies of all time. It is an older movie, came out in the 90s, but is a classic. It is absolutely hilarious. Bill Murray and Woody Harrelson are great. Everybody should see this movie. Not only is it over the top hilarious, it also though is overall a good movie. It has a point to it.
I mentioned earlier in one of my blogs about Meet the Parents. That movie is another one of my favorites. The movie The New Guy is another one of my favorites. It came out a while ago, in like 02, and wasn't real popular but I liked it. While it was very silly, it was one of those movies that made no sense so it didnt even try. It was just plain hilarious. D.J. Qualls stars in it. Eddie Griffin also appears in it briefly. When it came out during the summertime, I went to see with a friend of mine and we were both laughing so hard, I almost started crying.
Groundhog Day with Bill Murray is another good one. It is an older movie as well. It is one of those movies you can watch more than once and still find it very funny. I am a big Bil Murray fan. he's usually pretty funny.
The Benchwarmers with Rob Schneider, David Spade and Jon Heder is another one of those New Guy kind of movies. While at times it was very silly, it was always funny. I have friends who didn't like it, but I liked it and was laughing most of the time while watching it.
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. It is an old movie, came out in like the late 80s, but is Chevy Chase at his best. There are so many funny parts in this movie. Randy Quaid is also in it and is very funny. This is another movie that while is over the top hilarious, also has a point. It is fun to watch.
Napolean Dynamite is another classic. Everybody knows about this movie. Its hilarious.

places I've visited

Im glad its the weekend. Tomorrow I'll be heading up to Oxford to visit some friends. School has been going pretty good. I decided I would write about the favorite places I've visited in today's blog.
I've been to a bunch of different places within the U.S. As far as real big cities, Ive been up to Washington D.C., over to Los Angeles, Seattle and Portland. They were all very fun places to go to. Portland was an awesome city. Los Angles traffic was as bad as they say. I went to Washington D.C. back in 2000 and it was fun. You can't beat going to New Orleans, especially since its so close to here. It doesn't get much better than Bourbon. Savannah, Georgia was a lot of fun to visit. One of my best friends lives in mobile and its always blast seeing him. My brother lives in Little Rock, Arkansas and that is a cool city. I have friends who live there. I went to jekyll Island Georgia once for vacation and while there wasnt much to do, it was definitely a cool resort area. Destin, Florida and Gulf Shores, Alabama are definitely my favorite beach areas. I used to go to those places as a little kid with my family and still do with my friends every now and then. There are no better places to go to just relax and enjoy the atmosphere. I enjoy visitng new places. I have never been outside of this new country and would like to someday. Right now I cant afford to but hopefully I will be able to after school. My brother has though and he really enjoyed being in Europe.
